In a proof-of-concept trial , Verizon and Calix tuned up speeds of 34 Gbps through the use of bonded NG-PON2. Last year Verizon announced it was moving directly from GPON to NG-PON2 in order to better serve small and mid-size businesses with low latency, fiber-based speeds.
“We know how important connectivity is to small and mid-size businesses,” said T.J. Fox, senior vice president and president of Verizon Business Markets, in a statement. “These advances will deliver the promise of the cloud for our customers and bring them technology at parity to what previously was only in reach for large enterprises.”
